How MLSⓇ Laser can add value for practices, patients and practitioners

Investing in equipment can be daunting and clinic owners need to know that it will be worth their while. Celtic SMR recently ran a webinar to discuss the various ways that MLSⓇ laser therapy can add value for practices, patients and practitioners. In this blog I will outline some of the key takeaways from that webinar.

Value For Practices

Adding an MLS laser to your clinic has potential to bring value to your clinic in a number of ways:

• It could open up a wider selection of patients. You may be able to offer treatments for conditions which you currently do not treat such as arthropathies and could attract new patients into your clinic as a result.
• It gives your clinic something different which stands out from those around you. Patients may choose to come to you because you have a laser but the clinic next door does not. Your marketing can tell them how your laser can help them eg faster recovery, painless treatment etc.
• I can generate word of mouth referrals. From first hand experience, I can almost guarantee that you will end up with patients calling to book in for laser treatment for their issue because their neighbour/friend etc has had it and it helped them.
• It gives you a tool to treat those tricky patients who have tried many other treatment modalities
• Introducing laser into your clinic gives you great potential to make a return on your investment. Laser users report a significant increase in income since including MLSⓇ

Laser. Please see the examples below:

• It's a business expense and so goes against your tax burden

Value For Patients

Patients love MLSⓇ laser. Here’s why:

• It doesn’t hurt!
• It could speed up their recovery time
• It could reduce their discomfort quickly therefore makes it easier for them to do their rehab exercises
• Patients love tech! A laser treatment appeals to many patients and gives them a story to tell their friends
• Extremely low risk of side effects – MLSⓇ laser offers a very safe treatment modality

“Another happy laser patient who had a very painful and reactive Achilles’ tendon on both feet. A course of laser therapy has reduced her pain to minimum so she can get on with essential loading exercises to strengthen the tendons and get back to activity.” – Tim Vesey-Smith from Active Podiatry

Value for Practitioners

MLS laser can make your life more enjoyable, I know because I’ve been there.

• Attract a new type of patient. If you’d like to encourage more athletes or MSK patients to your clinic, laser gives you a great solution for them
• Save your hands! Many manual therapists have told me how they use the laser to soften/relax tissue to save their hands and allow them to focus on the more targeted manual work
• It’s easy to use. MLSⓇ lasers are very intuitive to use with their pre-programmed protocols.
• The robotic heads give you the opportunity to treat 2 areas in the time it would otherwise take to treat 1.
• Great feedback from patients makes you feel good. We do what we do to help people and there’s nothing more satisfying that hearing that you have helped your patient to achieve their treatment goals.
